Mediatite: Singapore PM Says US Image in Question During Press Conference With Kamala Harris
Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said during a Sunday press conference with Vice President Kamala Harris that he believed after America’s “awry” withdrawal of troops led to the fall of Afghanistan, global perceptions of our image would be determined in the days ahead.
“What will influence perceptions of U.S. resolve and commitment to the region will be what the U.S. does going forward: how it repositions itself in the region, how it engages its broad range of friends and partners and allies in the region, and how it continues the fight against terrorism,” Lee said.
“Countries make calculations and take positions, and they have to make recalculations and adjust their positions from time to time.
Sometimes it can be done smoothly. Sometimes there are hiccups. Sometimes things go awry and take time to put right.”

I knew this was going to happen. I just didn't think it would happen this fast.
I agree Russ, the time frame.
the image of America shattered under Trump... you quickly try to forget that...only dictators and poorly educated misfits here and elsewhere wallow in his stupidity and thousands of lies
You have been a busy boy 8:48. Joe Biden is a miracle, He is the 1st American president to be held in contempt by British parliament and the Democrats lied and said things would get better.
I would take a twice impeached president by a partisan vote by liars and thieves over a president held in contempt unanimously in a bipartisan vote in the British Parliament.
You're losing!
Joe Biden is losing. He was held in contempt by the British parliament. You just cannot miss that. Historians will not be kind.
